About: I am a veterinary assistant and have worked and surrounded myself with animals my whole life. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters, worked with vets, and was a dog handler and a doggie daycare over the past few summer years. I have experience with cat, dogs, fish, rodents, reptiles, and more. I love hiking and spending time outside as well, so hikes with dogs are more than welcome! I recently moved to Boise and am excited to get to know the area, so taking your dog on walks is the perfect excuse for me to explore ;) I work Monday-Friday from 8am to 5pm so i before and after my shift I can take care of your furry, scaly or slimy friends! I also don’t work weekends at all so my availability is wide open! When working with animals in their own homes, I think it’s important to understand you’re coming into their space and to work slowly to earn their trust! I have worked with many different animals and know how to read body language, so if your pet is uncomfortable I know how to work with them and listen to their needs.
About: I have one year of pet care experience providing reliable, attentive care for dogs and cats. 🐾 I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, enrichment, administering medications, and following your pet’s routine. I know every pet has their own personality and needs, and I love creating a safe, comfortable, and happy environment while you’re away. I’ll care for your pets with patience, kindness, and plenty of love while keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind. 🐶🐱 I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability, which allows me to provide dependable care and give each pet the time, attention, and love they deserve. I’m happy to accommodate different routines and bookings while making sure your pets feel comfortable, cared for, and well looked after. 🐾 I have a fenced backyard and two dogs of my own, creating a safe and comfortable environment for pets in my home. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s routine closely and provide personalized care, attention, and updates to help pets feel happy and secure.
About: I have a calm, loving energy that dogs naturally feel drawn to and relaxed by, and making new dog friends is my favorite part of being a pet sitter! I have spent my adult life living in and caring for community spaces and relations, children, animals and gardens, and I am innately dedicated to routine, safety, and responsibility, to create functional and peaceful environments. I communicate clearly and consistently so you can always know how your pet is doing! A little about me: I’m an artist with an old soul and a playful spirit. I’m comfortable with big dogs, shy cats, energetic pups, and everything in between. Their uniqueness is a part of their perfectness, and I can't help but fall in love with their honest self expression! We’ll go for long walks, smell the plants, and lay on the ground for belly rubs. I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and deeply loved! I’m a student at Boise State, and I always have time gaps in my day that are perfect for dropping in to give pets a potty break, some playtime, or just a little love and company. Weekends are completely open for me, so I have lots of time for longer stays and house sitting. Spending time with animals is one of the highlights of my day, so it’s a really nice balance for school, and I look forward to it! I care for pets in their own home so they feel safe and comfortable in their routine. I follow your instructions closely, keep things tidy, and treat your pets like family. You can count on regular updates and photos so you always know they’re happy and cared for.
“Adrianna was so great with my babies!!! Even my overly shy kitty came out and was comfortable with her. I loved all the updates and pics she sent me every day. I was definitely more at ease being away knowing my cats were in good hands!”
“Mikayla is so great with my cat! He definitely looks forward to anyone who comes to the front door being her, and when it’s not he is visibly disappointed. She is reliable and takes the best pictures while she’s taking care of my boy!”
“Josey was absolutely fantastic for our pups Sailor and Zazu. She communicates well, often, and is thoughtful in asking questions. If you are like me it is the most comforting to have someone you trust, your dogs love, and shows up for them when they need her. I will absolutely be checking to see if Josey is available for future visits!”
“Caitlynn went above and beyond when watching my cats this time around. She watered my plants, cleaned up messes, and took the garbage cans to the curb. When she watches my cats, I know that they receive the love and attention that they deserve. Highly recommend!!”
“Rachel did an excellent job caring for our pets. She was responsive and we could tell she went above and beyond to care for our cat Toby! I would definitely book with Rachel again for our next trip.”
“Sara was exceptional in caring for my two whippets during my ski trip to Bogus. She arrived right on time for their dinner, followed all instructions perfectly, and provided detailed updates throughout her visit. Her genuine care for my dogs and professionalism make her my go-to pet sitter. Highly recommended!”
“Kristi is always great! She did daily drop-ins to give meds to my cat while I was in the mountains, and helped out with my other cat. She even worked around the pet sitter who was house sitting. I loved receiving all the photos from each day when I reentered cell range. It was such a great feeling.”
“Atticus was great with taking care of our cats as well as being agreeable to taking care of non-pet related tasks such as taking out the garbage to the curb and bringing in packages. Atticus was communicative, agreeable to a meet and greet, and stuck to the care schedule. I would book with Atticus in the future and recommend others do the same.”
“Kaylah was fantastic and so flexible with our changing needs. I really felt like she cared about doing what was best for the dogs, not just checking off a task. She really went above and beyond and I would definitely recommend her!”
“Elisa took care of my 2 old cats multiple days. She followed the instructions I left and went beyond that with extra effort. She reported through Rover each day she visited and included pictures. My cats seemed very happy with her and even let her pet them! I will definitely request Elise if we travel again.”
“Niki has been so helpful with our dogs. One is elderly and has been watched by her many times. This recent trip was the first time we also left our 4 yr old lab for an extended amount of time. Niki took the time to make sure our lab got exercise and both of our girls were in great spirits on our return. Everything went great!!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Perkins
Kassidy did an amazing job caring for our very loved senior cat Peach who needs frequent drop-in visits. We had lots of reassurance Peach was in good hands when Kassidy provided regular updates and photos of her while we were on an extended trip away from home. I definitely recommend Kassidy to anyone in need of a caring and capable cat sitter!
Melinda is a great sitter! She took amazing care of our cat despite there being extra stress from our recent move. Was proactive and insisted on meeting us ahead of time which was comforting since we are new to the area. Overall we would absolutely book again!
Kelsey was wonderful! The daily updates about our cat and her willingness to help water our garden were so helpful. She even alerted us immediately to a water leak in our house while we were gone and we appreciate her communication so much. We will definitely have her back in the future!
Humm, I thought I already did a review, but I’m getting notice again to do it. Kelcy did a great job with my 12yo cat. Betty Jo was well cared for and Kelcy did everything asked of her. She also takes wonderful pictures! I now have some great shots of Betty Jo. I would not hesitate to hire her again.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Perkins. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
